Nancy Drew...

  Welcome to my first outfit post from our new flat, I am still trying to find a decent background so you will have to bear with me until I find a nice blank wall...I don't know why, but I always feel like a detective in this hat! I don't wear it enough but I actually love the 1920s feel it gives to an outfit. 

Dress: Zara, hat: Marks & Spencer, belt: George at ASDA, bag: NW3 by Hobbs, shoes: New Look
Occasionly I am struck with a sudden bolt of inspiration when it comes to getting dressed and this outfit was one of those times. You all know how much I love my little red bag and this hat matched the tan tones on it perfectly. I have also been wearing this belt a lot recently, the floral print helps to jazz up an otherwise plain outfit...


I love it when I can match my lipstick to what I'm wearing and this scarlet Max Factor lipstain is perfect. I desperately need a haircut though, does anyone know of any good hairdressers in Cheltenham?


In one of those rare sunny interludes partaking in my favourite past-time: watching the cows.  What more could you ask for?

Which items should you wear more? What is your favourite past-time?

The red dress is amazing. I love that colour on you!

Such a fab outfit :)
I need to make an effort to get out of scruffy clothes, working from home means I just throw old jeans and tshirt on everyday. Need to wear more dresses.

very 'Bright Young Things', lovely! I need to be more casual. I wear dresses all the time and it doesn't feel special when I go for a night out. I have denim shorts on today, complete madness for me x

Heyy, I'm from Cheltenham too! Haha, I got way too over excited about that.
I go to Eme at Cream and get my hair done :) she's so lovely and a really good hairdresser.
I love the hat, it definitely has a 20s feel to it x

I do love you in red. Awesome look and so pleased to see you doing outfits in your new home too.

I really really should wear trousers more, I have a couple of nice pairs, but I find dresses so much easier.
